Aug 17,2017

Roscommon GAA is pleased to confirm that we have today been informed by TG4 and the GAA that following representations from Roscommon GAA the Inaugural All Ireland under 17 Football Final will be shown live and exclusively on TG4.

Roscommon GAA Co Chairman Seamus Sweeney said " wish to thank the GAA Director of Communications Alan Milton for his work and also to thank Rónán Ó Coisdealbha the Head of Sport at TG4 for ensuring that the people of Roscommon got an opportunity to see the game live on television. We commenced negotiations on Saturday last at 8 pm and today Thursday at 4-30pm we received confirmation that the game will be shown live.

Roscommon GAA received a small allocation of tickets and there was no way that all supporters would be in a position to get to see the game. However, thanks to the intervention of Croke Park we are now happy that all will get the chance to see the game".
